Boxing, weight-lifting, wrestling, and judo are graded events in that opponents are matched by weight. If protection were to be denied by removing this restriction such sports would overwhelmingly favour the heavyweights. Data on Olympic winners show that many running and jumping events are seriously biased in favour of the very tall. It is suggested that the rules of these events should be revised to include a grading by height. This would remedy an element of unfairness in many athletic contests, beginning at school.
拳击、举重、摔跤和柔道都是分级赛事,因为对手是按体重进行匹配的。如果取消这一限制从而不再提供这种保护,那么此类运动将极其有利于重量级选手。奥运会冠军的数据表明,许多田径项目严重偏向于非常高的选手。有人建议,这些项目的规则应进行修订,以纳入按身高分级的规定。这将纠正许多体育比赛(从学校阶段就开始)中存在的不公平因素。
